  1. My grandmother had Alzheimer's. Once she asked if we were all hungry, and brought out a can of Mighty Dog for us to eat. Still laugh at that.
  2. Might be easy when the pitcher is tossing you the ball underhand.
  3. Not sure the Red Sox should tie $13-$14 million for a closer, when they have Bard behind him. That money could be used on a more valuable player.
  4. Seems pretty likely, but you never know in a five game series.
  5. You've got to be 12 years old.
  6. Definitely Pedroia, who is playing better than his MVP season. He's going to enter the discussion pretty soon. I just hope he stops sliding head first into first base.
  7. Are you a P.R. spokesman for Sterling Equities? Why do you think Wilpon can't convert his real estate holdings into cash? Why can't he borrow against those substantial assets to acquire a loan to shore the Mets finances? Oh, because Sterling Equities is a major real estate investment firm. I wonder what direction that market has headed the last four years? The $70 million they made in outright fraud from Madoff will be taken from them by a court settlement, and the honest investments they made in real estate are already worthless. I do agree that the Mets are probably sound financially, but that leads into the next point.. Wilpon isn't being forced to sell the Mets. He's using his only valuable asset (that and SNY, but Wilpon doesn't own SNY) to raise cash to stave off the twin crisis that are rocking the rest of his empire. Why else would he sell 33% of his baseball team for pennies on the dollar? Why else would he agree to sell the Mets for an actual dollar? Even if Einhorn loses his bet, he still owns 1/3 of a baseball franchise valued at close to $800 million. Desperate people do desperate things.
  8. Yeah, drool over his .634 OPS. He's washed up, and the name would probably require us to trade a top prospect. No thanks.
  9. Bay playing RF in Fenway Park would be a disaster.
  10. Did anyone see him get owned by Andrew Bailey in the bottom of the ninth? This guy hasn't solved anything. He sucks.
  11. He's still hitting bombs, but he still hasn't a clue about the strike zone. 12 K's, 0 walks.
